-The Omnibus F4 micro has a very noisy power supply. I added another low ESR capacitor paired with a 5 volt regulator, which in turn increased the up weight by <5 grams. Dry, the copter is almost close to weight with a Horizon Hobby Blade Torrent 110. I took her (Dark Sister II) out for a few flights with some Turnigy 3S 700mAh 60C (83 grams) and ReadyMadeRC 4S 450 mAh 60C (68 grams) batteries. The grip is amazing with 3S while slow flying, she was a jaw dropper with 4S. Overall, the copter feels like a light and overpowered full size mini-quad. If you have BetaFlight 3.1.7 installed on the flight controller and intend to drive with 4-cell batteries, you may want to go to configuration and drop the idle percent from the default of 4.50 to 1.00% as 4.50% made the copter bolter all over the place when armed.
